Description:Equity and Trusts is a core subject of study for nearly all law students. Unlike most other texts, this book approaches them from a contextual standpoint rather than focussing on legal sources alone. It emphasizes the numerous family, commercial and charitable contexts within which the legal rules operate, and integrates analysis of the law with discussion of those contexts. Selective use is made of extracts from key legal and non-legal mateirals to help provide a focus for study.
